Super Bowl Caps Football Season Dogged by Prayer Controversy
The New York Giants and the New England Patriots face off February 5 in the NFL
championship. The game, known as the Super Bowl, will be played in Indianapolis, Indiana
and ends a season in which expressions of faith on the field by a player from another team
ignited controversy.
Denver Broncos quarterback Tebow played with Bible verse numbers painted under his
eyes. After victories, he dropped down on one knee to pray and talked about his faith in
the locker room.
"First and foremost, I just want to thank my Lord and savior, Jesus Christ," Tebow would
tell reporters who asked him about the game.
The Broncos almost made it to the Super Bowl but lost to the Patriots during the playoffs,
despite a winning streak with Tebow as quarterback. But his displays of faith sparked a
nationwide controversy, with many football fans inspired by it and many others mocking it.
Most National Football League teams have spiritual advisers. George McGovern, the
chaplain of the Super Bowl-bound New York Giants, said he does not believe God takes
sides in sports, but understands that people might attribute a divine hand to quarterback
Tebow's success.
"Here's a man who took a losing team, and made it a winning team, even though he's not
that good a quarterback," McGovern said.
Tebow is now a hero to fellow evangelical Christians who have promoted sports as a way of
reviving Christian faith in American society.
Dan Britton is executive vice president of Ministry Programs at the Fellowship of Christian
Athletes. It runs thousands of summer camps and Bible study and prayer groups at
schools and colleges across the country.

Adapted from VOA News " World-Class Runners Flock to Kenyan Town " , Jill Craig,
January 28, 2012.
Kenyan marathon runners are world-famous.
And so it should come as no surprise that foreign athletes are flocking to Kenya to learn
their secrets. At 2,400 meters above sea level, Iten, a small town about 350 kilometers
north of Nairobi, is fast becoming a training hub for serious runners.
Lornah Kiplagat is a Kenyan-born athlete who has won marathons throughout the world
and holds several world records.
She and her husband Pieter founded the High Altitude Training Center in Iten, Kenya,
after realizing the town’s training benefits for athletes.
“The altitude here is sort of like perfect," she says. "It’s not too high. It’s not too low.
The weather is never hot, it’s warm. But there’s always a breeze, there’s a breeze always.
There is everything that you need. There is the gym, there is the pool, the food is good,
the nature. So all these things combined, definitely has made it the best place to be in
the world.”
Movie stars, famous long-distance runners, and amateurs all come to train in Iten.
The London Marathon organizers even chose Iten to announce the Kenyan men’s elite
field.
Some of those athletes include Wilson Kipsang, Emmanuel Mutai, and Patrick Makau, all
household names in the marathon world.
Top marathoners can make millions of dollars every year in sponsorships, appearance
fees, and prize winnings. For Kenyan runners, many of whom start their careers by running barefoot, this income can be a big incentive.
Regina Cherotich is a runner from Iten. She is participating at the annual Discovery Race,
where young Kenyan runners showcase their talents, and can even obtain sponsorships.
